! port purposes, principally for shipment by the
China steamer next Saturday. We quote net

the future, both for active trading and the sus-
| tainment of prices All traces of the late deal
| have disappeared. The many difficulties that
prevented an earlier settlement have been har
monized. and everything has been adjusted to
the satisfaction of the several parties interested.
| There are now no outstanding old contracts, and
| business, especially in the Call Board is ex-
| pected TO develop more yigor aud to show q
| much greater daily record of transactions. The
| situation at Liverpool keeps steady and il no
| reaction occur at that center, it is to be assumed

tive demand for several days, and trade in this
